![We asked our students, What will be your legacy in 100 years? "When I grow up I will be a professional NBA player [that] breaks records as a lead scorer and help out my community by giving our basketball workouts and being a mentor. I will make it here by working hard from middle school through high school so I can get a full scholarship to a college like Georgetown University, Kentucky, or Duke University. As a back-up plan I would be an artist that mentors people to do better in life and rap, sing, and draw about life. I would be successful to help and be known 100 years from now!" #SWEsummer2017 #literacy #summercamp #dreambig](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/58bdb2171b631b12e15dcbc7/593ea444c534a5c8d1070bb0/599491c385c5bd63a4a23f50/1502908878170/)
